how do i put in an order for one of the btcd anon cards? if orders havnt started yet, any idea when they will?

No orders yet, the details are still being worked out.  If you follow this thread, you'll know when they're ready to order Smiley
following intently! Grin

Yeah, me too. If this really works as intended it could be an aweomse fiat bridge.

I'm interested to see if these anon cards work in the US.  Federal law currently requires verification of social security number for purchasing reloadable prepaid debit cards.  As a result, the best anon card I know of right now in the US is to buy a non-reloadable $500 visa gift card with cash.

Requiring identity verification to put our own hard-earned cash onto a reloadable card is obviously an absurd violation of our right to privacy.......Oh well, that's just the way it goes in the land of hypocrisy I guess.
The land where buying a gun is easier than buying BTC is making this a challenge. The banks are being very slow, so we are thinking of two stages. It is possible to get a higher limit card sooner, but it will require ID. It is not a USA company, so they have no needs for any social numbers. It is like a halfanon card.

I suggested that this is a good stepping stone to the ultimate. It is a strange world we live in when it is taking as much time to make new crypto tech as it is for negotiating with banks to allow people to use the money they already have without requiring tracking devices being put in!

hey guys, honest question here, re: anon cards

These cards will have to be delivered presumably by mail.
Which means that i will have to give my name and address in order for me to receive the card.

That would not be very anon, would it?

A brief illustrated history of ShortBTCD, for anyone curious about how the pricing plays out.

(Note: the plots only show the daily reference price for BTCD/BTC and ShortBTCD, not the intraday fluctuations (except the last price point, which is current intraday), which is why you can get trades that deviate from the daily markers.)

Anyone buying BTCD at current prices?
Just interested in what some folks are thinking in general.
I have no idea where the price will go.

If everything with teleport, anon cards and superNet works out the way it is planned... there will be many more posts of "I should have bought when it was {0}" 20k, 200k, 1200k, 2000k, 5000k etc

If BTCD is successfully used to anonymously teleport bitcoins between addresses, this will be the most valuable feature of any altcoin, by far.


If teleport is successful, and BitcoinDark continues to innovate, we have a good chance to be the first altcoin to pass Litecoin market cap:

361344 BTC / 1183485 BTCD = 0.3054 BTC/BTCD

Volume is very low right now but yes people are buying, hence why price keeps creeping up.
Most are hodling until the next bit of functionality goes from talk, to test, to verified as working.   When that happens... we should see a new ATH.

Price will go up up up of course Wink  The coin has the greatest potential.  I really could see this going top 5 this year.

The company providing the cards are located in Eastern Europe. I'm not sure, but I assume that some other countries besides the US can legally purchase these cards.

I guess we will have to see how it works out.

Making slow progress on the debug. The msg stuff is almost working but found a few small things for BTCDdev to fix. Once the messages are being passed through to my code, then the debugging will go much faster as it will be my code on one server talking to my code on another server.

The funding is running smoothly and if it werent for the 100+ PMs per day, things would be like before. At least it only takes about 6hrs per day to catch up. The first days of funding, it was more like 16hrs to catchup, so I was never really caught up.

I apologize for the delay, but it will be worth it as the userbase can now grow to being much larger than before

James, you never cease to stop amazing me.
I have a feeling that you are wise far beyond your years.

at the center all problems are the same

I just learned to find the center and solve some simple problem

it is possible for anybody to learn

most people are spending their years solving the wrong problem

also never agree to do any GUI!

I guess i should not do any GUI

p/s : Wait I know nothing else beside GUI Embarrassed
Smiley

If your strength is GUI, then your center will be within the GUI
please more GUI from you!
